Ambiator: Cooling without warming the Planet

Ambiator is a Hyderabad-based climate tech startup that delivers a breakthrough in air-cooling technology, offering a sustainable, energy-efficient alternative to traditional air conditioning. Its mission is to make cooling accessible, affordable, and environmentally responsible for all.

The Problem 

Rising Temperatures, Unsustainable Solutions 

• Traditional air conditioning systems are energy-intensive, expensive, and rely on refrigerants that contribute to greenhouse gas emissions and global warming. 

• In hot, dry, and increasingly humid climates, millions face thermal discomfort, with low-income communities most vulnerable to extreme heat. 

• Existing solutions often neglect energy efficiency, water usage, and accessibility, creating barriers to widespread adoption of sustainable cooling.

The Solution: Ambiator’s Eco-Friendly Cooling System 

Revolutionary, Scalable, and Clean 

• Technology: Ambiator uses a patented two-stage cooling process: 

• Stage 1: Dry cooling via a heat exchanger reduces air temperature without adding humidity. 

• Stage 2: Advanced evaporative cooling further cools the air, using water-saturated pads and a continuous water circulation system. 

• No Harmful Refrigerants: Unlike conventional ACs, Ambiator eliminates the use of ozone-depleting and greenhouse gas refrigerants. 

• Energy Efficiency: Consumes only 1 kW per hour-up to 80% more efficient than conventional air conditioners-delivering up to 6.5x energy savings. 

• Solar Ready: Only packaged cooling product that can be powered by solar panels, enabling net-zero cooling solutions. 

• Fresh Air & Comfort: Supplies 100% fresh, filtered air, maintaining indoor temperatures between 24°C and 28°C, with low noise levels (<50 dBA). 

• Smart Controls: IoT-enabled for remote monitoring, energy optimization, maintenance scheduling, and real-time diagnostics via app/web. 

• Water Use: Highly efficient, with water consumption ranging from 0–6 liters/hour/ton depending on ambient temperature.

Impact 

• Environmental: Zero ODP (Ozone Depletion Potential), zero GHG (Greenhouse Gas) emissions, and significant reduction in energy and water use. 

• Economic: 30% less expensive than traditional 5-ton VRF/VRV systems, with lower operational costs and utility bills. 

• Social: Democratizing access to efficient cooling, especially for underserved and climate-vulnerable communities. 

• Recognition: Runner-up at TSEC’s 11th edition; featured in climate innovation challenges and sustainability forums.
